British Columbia's largest and fastest growing health authority

Over 26,000 employees, 2,900 physicians and 8,000 volunteers provide services that range from acute care to community-based residential, home, mental and public health to 1.8 million people – 1/3 of British Columbia’s population in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

For many years in a row, Fraser Health has been recognized as one of BC's Top Employers. Here are some of the reasons why Fraser Health Authority was selected as one of BC's Top Employers (2017)

Varying by employee group and position, Fraser Health Authority offers its new mothers maternity leave top-up payments (from 10 to 17 weeks) and helps employees balance their work and personal lives with alternative work options and starting vacation entitlements that range between three and four weeks;

Fraser Health Authority encourages ongoing professional development with tuition subsidies for courses taken at outside institutions, online training programs and subsidies for professional accreditation - the organization also encourages employee fitness with free membership to an onsite fitness facility that features instructor-led classes for activities such as yoga and Zumba.
